Abstract

The chassis has a tubular longitudinal beam (2) made of steel and a crashbox (4) made of light metal. The crashbox is fastened to an end of the longitudinal beam pointing in driving direction. The crashbox and the longitudinal beam are separated from an adapter element (5) which is connected with the longitudinal beam and the crashbox. The adapter element is made of steel.
